Get a Forman man! I sure do miss mine! That thing would haul some major ***! :(

foremans are very slow & heavy so if you plan on riding some trails fast every once in awhile u wont have fun with this...good mudder & hillclimber though..

Not if you put a big gun pipe, a web cam, port and poilsh the head, and bore it over .060 over with a 12:1 compresion piston. Thats what was done to mine and that thing would haul ***! I was gunna put some works shocks on it but I wanted a sport quad so i sold it for my 300.

Dude wtf is with you and speed? The rancher is not the best quad out there, so get a grip. If your getting a utility quad, none of them are "fast" A rancher only goes 50....wohoo. As far as the Foreman goes, they are great quads. Yes they are heavy, but they will go through lots of mud, and out pull a Rancher anyday. If your gonna get a utility, don't plan on getting anything fast:o

my friend has a 650 prairie and that thing is sick. and he can do good wheelies on it as well as some good air. also the artic cat 400 is a good utilty quad, as well this thing will get up and go when you want it heres some pics of one http://www.geocities.com/fitz4245/Johnnys_track.html
he also flew the bigger jump by the road (6ft high, 35 foot gap) and didn't even bottom out!

For starters, the new P750 is not EFI. The Sportsman 700 EFI and the upcoming Suzuki 700 EFI are the only two quads that will have the EFI.

If you want something for speed and power you'll need to go with one of the big bores. If you want something smaller and more maneuverable you'll have to look at the Foreman, Kodiak, Prairie 360. It's hard to find speed without going with one of the big boys.

Why would someone want to mod a utility? To go faster, to turn bigger tires, etc. Wake up.
